It's your amigo, Ralph!
  • RIP Ralph

  • What makes a good whetstone set? What sets should I avoid?
  • Have a look at jauce.com, but you should have a general idea what to look for. Dictum.com has a curated offer, but idk what shopping will cost you from Germany, but they for real quality. https://www.dictum.com/en/sharpening-e

    And what you need depends on many factors: how many knives is worth how much to invest? I like that one for basic needs: https://www.dictum.com/en/combination-stones/cerax-combination-stone-without-base-10006000-grit-711547?c=12246 Of you want to sharpen Japanese steel, like shiro gami or aogami, maybe something with softer bindings, tiger stones for example. Chips in the blade? Diamond stone, only mono-crystalline ones. Here's an inexpensive set I can recommen: https://www.dictum.com/en/sharpening-stone-sets/m-power-tools-dc-shapingsharpening-block-set-extra-finecoarse-740063 Maybe there were vendors for M. Power tool diamond stones in your vicinity.

  • Oh man bro this edible is hitting me already....
  • That smells like a dare... Would you drink that for 100 bucks?

  • Leaky bags
  • Don't eat the white poison. It's made from the ice wall that contains the oceans of the flat earth. Sometimes even from chemtrails!

  • Biden supporters mostly back him in 2024 election because they oppose Trump, poll finds
  • Sometimes I wish my competitors were as stupid and unsympathetic as Trump.

  • Most annoying feature ever
  • ViMusic

  • Linux is still not ready to replace Windows
  • My wife's gaming pc runs on garuda for quite some time now and she never had any problems, just saying. To the more intricate things: people have to get already that they don't get the everything-button. If you want something as you specifically want it, you have to learn some stuff. If you want a table that's just right for you and well done, you'll have to pay good money or learn carpentry. Why should it be different with technology?

  • That's right, and it's not about efficiency. As I thought is apparent from what I wrote. So again: it's not POSSIBLE in the TIME we got to LOAD a vehicle in the middle of a WORKDAY when we have to go to a customer. Why not? Because, at least the last time I checked, we don't print money. One last time: it is not COST efficient. It WOULD be with a larger capacity. No, we're not poor but I rather pay my folks here more than pay for loading time.

  • Why bother at all? Why writing here? It's the technology, not the particular brand of car or the seats.

  • Bussy?
  • She should get a strap-on and be happy, that she's apparently not as floppy as her grandma.

  • Of you really think about something, somewhere Gary Busey has to do with it. In a weird Busey way, of course, but there is done relation between every single thing in the universe and Gary Busey. Thanks wishes to be him.

  • That's a fact!

    Didn't actually know where to post it otherwise. Spelling is almost correct...

    Every day, all day, for years, hard used, only small repairs, still favorite

    Benchmade Griptilian mini, 154CM steel, good for resharpening, I stop before insanely sharp because work knife, not shaving blade, but it's possible, only had to change the screws on the clip for a tiny bit longer ones (actually laptop screws + loctite), the threads are quite short in the metal casing below the polymer. Very comfy to carry, length over all 17cm (~7 inch), blade 7cm(2.75 inch), it's no survival knife, more a city slicker and package opener. My fav to carry, by far.

    Our palm tree was named "Reginald" or short "Reggie", I actually don't remember why exactly

    Like in "has Reggie got some water today?" or "when did Reggie last got some fertilizer?", he's the "bouncer" on the door to my wife's workshop & everybody loves him, even the squirrels from outside.

    Built a kitchen, learned a bunch

    I'm more of a solid wood guy, learned a bit about chipboard here, for example to avoid it where possible. But the countertop is real wood :) We haven't got much space, so you have to build stuff.

    Frankentool - Gerber Armbar + Leatherman Clip

    The Gerber armbar has got 2 holes for an awful plastic clip and I thought "easy fix" - it wasn't. Had to order screws M2x4mm & M2 nuts and had to drill very exact, worked out in the end, I present: Frankentool® PS: Locktite's your friend.
